This is a full-time, 10-month appointment that runs from September 1st through June 30th of each academic year. The Writers' Center emphasizes working with individuals rather than just documents, and is located in a well-lit campus library that is central to other student support areas and a vibrant coffee shop. The center engages writers from various disciplines and academic levels, including high school students, graduate students, and faculty members. The role of the Student Success Advisor is to enhance writers' rhetorical awareness and facilitate learning transfer, providing personalized support tailored to the specific needs of each writer. The successful candidate will work closely with students, staff, and faculty, conducting one-on-one sessions, small group meetings, and workshops.

The position requires a collaborative approach, as the advisor will be part of a team committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and to excellence in serving the community. The Writers' Center is particularly interested in multilingual candidates and those from diverse academic backgrounds. The position is primarily on-site, with at least 80% of the work conducted in person.
